Thanks for your offer to help, Hive.

1. So you're saying that there is no processor available for my Mboard that would at least double my processor speed? I expected that answer. Oh well...I had to try.

2. I have no budget. I will spend what I have to spend, but I do not like buying the latest and newest equipment because technology grows and changes so fast that there is no reason to pay a premium when the prices will fall so much in a few months. I'll take advice on anything that is worth my time and will last long enough to get me through at least the next 3-5 years like this one has. I mean...my system works fine even now...but I am thinking of changing out before the end of this year.

BTW, I shop at Intrex as there is one real close to my house, so its easy to go in and get whatever I want. I can get better deals online, but I like buying the important stuff with my own hands so that those hands can strangle the person that sold the faulty equipment to me if need be.

3. DRAT! My RD RAM is useless in newer boards? I've got 1024 MB of the stuff. I guess you're going to tell me that SD RAM is what I'll be needing?

3,5. Video Card? NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 200 (64 MB). Yeah, its AGP.

I initially wanted to just replace my video card with something worth the time, but I was told by another source that it was quite possible that the newer cards would not like my old mommyboard. Therefore, I decided to get a newer Mboard and Processor before the vid.card. Does that make sense?
